Sumario:Subsistence diversification is achieved by adding different species to a diet. From the Broad Spectrum Revolution approach, several explanations have been proposed to explain this diversity in the food at the end of Pleistocene in Europe and Near East, such as demographic, ecological, nutritional and technological aspects, and mobility of hunter-gatherer groups. For several authors, this diversification, mainly based on the systematic acquisition of small prey, is still a highly debated topic during the pre-Upper Palaeolithic times in Europe. In this study, evidence of human use of small animals for food are presented from level XVII (MIS 9), XI (MIS 6) and IV (MIS 5e) of Bolomor Cave (Valencia, Spain) and from the TD10-1 sublevel (MIS 9) of Gran Dolina (Burgos, Spain). At these sites, the anthropogenic use of faunal resources not only is focused on small animals but also on large and small carnivores, in addition to ungulates. From the data obtained, changes in diet do not seem to be linear in time and space, but these seem to be influenced by behavioral diversity, occupational pattern and characteristics of the environment.
